Had the young birds out tonight and I'm delighted with them insted of going in all different directions they all flew in a batch and dissappeared for about an hour then came back when a called them in 7 came firing in but one just flew off itself this bird has done this before and spent 2 or 3 nights out allready for the same why does this bird not want to come in with the rest and get its feed

DONT WORRY ABOUT THAT Y/B YET GEO JUST YOU REMEMBER THAT HUNGER IS A GREAT TOOL TO CONTROL THEM WITH ;)

[JohnQuinn]

We all get the headstrong yb's that would drive you crazy, it'll learn soon enough, just don't feel sorry for it and feed it when it eventually comes in. Hunger truly does make good kitchen, and obedient young birds!!

That's that one back flew back and staight through the trap your right some are bonmkers. It was good to see them all up the gither flying like a real squad although there are only eight soon the other ones will be up aswell I can't imagine what it feels like getting a bird home from a race if it feels this good seeing them all doing well up in the sky

if you are concerned they may fly off first time out, then dip them upto their necks in warm (some say slightly soapy) water, this will prevent them from flying off and give them plenty of time to have a good look around, and familiarise themselves with their surroundingshttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif

Birds flew well the night dissapeared for 35 mins is that them ranging or what and how long do they have to be ranging for before they can be trained

it's when they stop ranging that you need to start training them,don't worry you'll notice that they won't fly for long when they stop the ranging.
